The woman accused of abducting newborn Mogamat Imaad Shamar from Middestad Mall in Bellville made her first appearance in the Bellville Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, 3 July.
The 37-year-old faces charges of kidnapping and defeating the ends of justice.
She was arrested on Monday after the missing infant was found in her care at a home in Tafelsig, Mitchells Plain — just days after the baby was taken on Saturday.
The case has been postponed to 10 July to allow for the finalisation of bail information and a possible bail application.
The accused remains in police custody until her next court appearance.
